They should put a fine meter on his tongue and it should just rack up fines every time he opens his mouth. The team and its fans feed off his bad attitude. I remember when he was thrown out of a critical game against Washington a couple of seasons ago. Hopefully the Devils will wipe that arrogant grin off his face this year and send him back to the gutter where he belongs.

Maybe you should replace the lighbulb in your moms basement so you can see comments clearer If support is so intense why can i get a ticket day of a playoff game no problem and for less than half of what I would have to pay in Philly? Why do I not see any fans in south jersey, even central jersey or is your border different than everyone elses

I’m a devils fan but I’m wildly amused by guys like tortorella and laviolette and don cherry. Remember when Robbie ftorek was throwing benches on the ice? When that minor league coach stripped and threw his clothes on the ice? And you think torts is bad?

Tue, 22 May 2012 16:23:46 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=575201#comment-74904Tortorella is *almost* as much of a bush-league hack as his # 1 goon, Rupp.
I hate both of these teams…but now the rest of the country hates the Rangers too.
And by the way…there is a reason you do NOT pull bush-league crap like this in the playoffs…Rupp just completely pissed-off a Hall-of-Fame goalie who just happens to be the hottest goalie in the playoffs right now.
Good luck getting to the finals…next year, ’cause the Rangers are DONE this year thanks to Rupp.

Tue, 22 May 2012 16:02:15 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=575201#comment-74899I was simply pointing out the irony in calling out Brodeur’s success because of the style of play of the team and players in front of him. Not to diminish from Lundqvists play when he’s had to make a save, but right now he’s successful for exactly the same reasons Brodeur was successful — the players in front of him

– Lundqvist has a solid team in front of him that blocks a large percentage of incoming shots (including blocks from forwards)
vs.
– Brodeur had a solid team in front of him that blocked a large percentage of incoming offensive pressure (including trap pressure from forwards)

Only key difference: The zone in which the trap is setup.

Every negative comment on here is from people who don’t like the Rangers and are just pissed because they’re team isn’t two wins away from the finals.

Tue, 22 May 2012 15:30:58 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=575201#comment-74887jsutan- I’ll take shot blocking any day over “whoever gets the lucky bounce for a breakaway and scores the one and only goal of the game because there is nothing but interference going on in the neutral zone” any day of the week! Ten years of Devils Trap Crap turned the league into sheer boredom! Obviously, based on the TV ratings, more people agree with my thoughts than yours.

However, 2 guys from the 2 networks broadcasting the game does not the media make;besides, I was mostly taking a jab at the Amount of words that came out of Torts in the argument versus the short, terse statements he gives to the general media during the press conferences after the game.

Tue, 22 May 2012 14:11:19 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=575201#comment-74870Yeah because Brodeur has had way better teams in front of him over his career than Lundqvist has. And the only reason New Jersey won those Cups was because they played the boring trap which pretty much ruined the game of hockey. Any half decent goalie would have won Cups on those boring New Jersey teams. They were a disgrace to the NHL. Could you imagine the high flying Oilers back in the 80’s playing that boring brand of hockey? Didn’t think so.

Tue, 22 May 2012 10:11:57 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=575201#comment-74832Devils fans are a real piece of work. I love when they say that the Rangers team/fanbase “lacks class”. Your fans threw garbage on the ice when the Panthers scored in the first round. Your goalie refuses to shake hands with players he doesn’t like during the ceremonial handshake. Marty said in an interview last week that he didn’t like Manhattan. Who cares? I don’t see Rangers players talking about how much of a crime infested dump Newark is. Lets face it, the majority of Devils fans are very casual fair weather fans who know little about hockey and just simply want to back the Jersey team, which is fine, but don’t come in here and act like you’re an authority on NHL rules/history because you can repeat the same Brodeur stats from ’97 over and over again.

As far as the Tortorella dispute goes…..The guy gets criticized over ever thing he does. If he does a short interview he’s “misrepresenting the sport”. If he comes out and says his true feelings about a cheap shot or bad call he’s a “whiner”. The guy is passionate about his job and tells it like it is. I cant stand the PC crowd trying to regulate hockey. If you want to watch a nicey nice sport with players that don’t show any personality then go watch a Yankees game.

Great name for a Rangers fan. The Devils support is intense all across the state. Maybe they’re just not here.

Really? You’re Bi for beasts? Maybe Rupp can squeeze you in after they suspend him? Let us know how that goes biguy.

I dont like Rupp or the Rangers but when your losing the game it’s not a bad move to do something to piss off the other team so maybe they get distracted and focused on getting revenge then continue to dominate you wether for that or the next game. Devils fans are a joke as evidenced by the 3 ( might be generous) fans that regularly comment and their weak ass support.

Tue, 22 May 2012 03:42:18 +0000http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/?p=575201#comment-74805If you’re going to cite examples of why a team does not lack class, you should probably provide examples that actually have to do with class. Having “heart”, a “young team”, one of the “best goalies” and making it to the ECF does not have anything to do with class. Tortorella giving a short press conference after a bad loss to make a point makes sense, but turning it into “his thing” is stupid. It’s just detracting from the sport at this point. Those press conferences are there for a reason – to give fans/media some insight that they’re interested in. They’re also mandatory for that reason, and he’s classless for making a mockery of it. That would be just one example….
